Media Center Monthly Report
August 2022
Highlights
During the month of August:
All classes, Pre-K through 5th grade, had Library Orientation in August. Consumable textbooks were distributed and tracked through Excel Spreadsheets. Fundations kits were checked out to students and teachers. Chromebooks were checked out to individual students in grades K-5th.
BCE Morning News We started production of the BCE Morning News Show for students and staff. We film 2-3 days a week on a green screen and I edit using an iPad. The show link is emailed daily to teachers and staff. | Bookings Page for the Media Center I started using the Bookings Page for teachers to schedule library visits and collaboration lessons online. This is in addition to their monthly visits on Fridays. | New App: Novel Effect I have enhanced our read alouds with the app Novel Effect. This provides background noises, sounds and music as I read the book aloud. This has been a big hit with our younger grades. |
